And what are you going to do for your first 10 levels, before you pick up the multiclass at-will at 11th?

To be honest, the only sets of roles I see having inherent problems is all-Leader parties, and even then, only with a size of 1-2. Everything else seems workable- tricky, perhaps, and with rather extreme tactics, but not impossible.

Well, whoever lost your best was stupid. I even put a weapon like this in my test game- although said cleric only used it for a melee attack twice, so it was rather pointless. I think a paladin will get a lot more use out of such a weapon/implement.

Yes, let's go back to making the wizard the only important member of the party. Sheesh. In your games, does taking a level of Fighter automatically lobotomize you? D&D is high-magic; there's no reason why any random hero can't figure out what a magic sword does. Well, no reason except your...

There's no feat to swap an at-will power. Not that we've seen, at any rate.

NP = Platinum?

But if the wound is small enough, then it was probably a "miss", mechanically. Any hit does a minimum amount of damage; for a minion, that damage is always physical. Ergo a blow that doesn't do any appreciable physical damage to a minion wasn't a hit, it was a miss with unusual fluff attached.

There is: the legionnaire template. There might be more. The name is kind of unfortunate for the legion devils, though.

Why not? Remember, the challenge doesn't do anything unless the target is attacking something. So there has to be a fight going on down there, at which point it's fine if the paladin pulls one of the enemies away from the brawl. There's always the option of full defense and/or running away.

Indeed it is. And since we don't have the books, we can scry-port-kill. For the last time. It's what he would have wanted...

Oops. I didn't realize they were down-scaled so far as to be illegible. Try this: http://picasaweb.google.com/Khaimm/4EEpicOneShot.

The thing is, it's not just whether he can save. Usually, he can. (As an aside, I think solos get +5 at all levels; the giant is just wrong.) But just being hit with a "save ends" afflicts you for at least one round. For that matter, so do "until end of your next turn" effects. And with five...

Last night I ran a 4e playtest, and I thought I’d share. I realize that there’s a ton of “I tried 4e!” threads, but so far I haven’t seen any epic-level ones. In response to the obvious question, no, there really isn’t that much epic material out there. I had to make a lot of it up- and I...

That does make sense, actually. I think I'll try that. (I'm running a game later today.) I'll see how it goes.

Yay! The forums were great. Plus I hate Gleemax with a fiery passion, for being terrible in almost every possible way.

I'm running a 22nd-level one-shot later this weekend. It's entirely possible to make high level characters, if you're not squeamish about making up powers. I'll probably post a write-up after the fact. It was a lot of fun to create the PCs, but creating the monsters was even easier. Which just...

Left-click a blank area. Counterintuitive, I know.

You should keep the top bar one color, for the frequency. I think that's what players will need to know the most, not where the ability comes from. On the other hand, adding a tint to the background- behind the text- would convey that information without detracting from the strong...

Here's a character I'm working on for a one-shot. She's not complete, but you get the idea. A lot of what I changed is because it's a one-shot; I don't need exp, campaign, etc.
